I want a better than OEM type pad for good highspeed stopping, aggressive driving, and good street manors. I've been reading on Tuners other people's experiences, and I've narrowed it down to these: Axxis Ultimates, Porterfield R4-S, Hawk HPS or HP Plus (Don't know which would be better, worried the HPS would have too poor cold performance for a DD). Any suggestions?

Why are you driving at high speeds? Isn't that dangerous and illegal?

I use the Axxis Ultimates and I really like them. Not much dust either, so that is nice. The price is good too.

I've got hawk hp plus and I have no complaints. I'm not doing and auto x or street racing, but they work great for my dd.

Porterfields R4-S is my suggestion for a good performance street brake pad.

That totally clears up his choice, a vote for each brand! :lol:

I really recommend getting something low dust. I went with the EBC Greens which were supposedly low dust. I was always cleaning the wheels trying to keep up with it.

I just put on the Hawk HP Plus pads and I love them so far. I'm also just using them on a DD, but they work great!

I know there's a thread on this from a while back when I was thinking about which pads to get and where.

I used to have some metal masters on my first DSM... those worked pretty well, but I haven't really tried anything else.
